Overland Park police said they're looking for four people in connection with a robbery outside Oak Park Mall Wednesday afternoon.

A woman said she was sitting in her car in a parking lot outside the Dillard's store about 3:50 p.m. when three females and a male opened her car door, pointed a gun at her and stole her purse and phone.

"As soon as they peeled off, I just ran back to the mall and was kind of hysterical and screamed for someone to call 911 because I was just robbed at gunpoint outside," said the woman.

Police said the suspects were described as between 15 and 21 years old.

They were seen leaving the area in a black Chrysler Sebring.

In a statement released late Wednesday, Oak Park Mall said that the safety and comfort of shoppers, employees and tenants was its top priority.

"Mall security is a 24/7 365-day program inside and outside the property," the statement said. "We will continue to work with local police departments to ensure out standards are maintained."

Anyone with information about the robbery is asked to call Overland Park police or the Crime Stoppers TIPS Hotline at 816-474-8477.
